So for my latest Giada creation I chose the Frittata with Potato and Prosciutto. After I made Giada’s other frittata I spoke to my mom and she told me this one is even better. She was SO right! This fritata had a whole lot more flavor, not that the other one wasn’t good, because it was, but this one was AMAZING! And amazingly easy to make:) The leftovers re-heat well too!
Ingredients
2 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 onion, chopped
1 (15-ounce) potato, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch cubes (I didn’t peel my potato).
1 garlic clove, minced
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
6 large eggs
1/4 cup whipping cream
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh basil
Directions
In a 9/12-inch-diameter nonstick ovenproof skillet, heat the oil over medium flame. Add the onion and saute until translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the potato, garlic, salt and pepper, and saute over medium-low heat unil the potato is tender and golden, about 15 minutes.
Preheat the broiler. In a medium bowl, whisk the eggs, cream, Parmesan cheese, prosciutto, and basil to blend. Stir the egg mixture into the potato mixture in the skillet. Cover and cook over medium-low heat until the egg mixture is almost set but the top is still runny, about 2 minutes. Place the skillet under teh broiler and broil until the top is set and golden brown, about 4 minutes. Using a rubber spatula, loosen the frittata from the skillet and slide it onto a plate. Cut the frittata into wedges and serve.

Oh my gosh, this looks so yummy! If only I had a skillet that could go in the oven…
Sigh.
1) I think mom made this for Josh and I, and it was delicious!
2) I love the photos of the step by step process!
This is a great light lunch or dinner. I do cheat and buy a 1lb. bag of frozen hash brown potatoes.

Ever since your mom told me the secret about the potatoes I have been getting them frozen
No one has noticed the difference
